* The second chapel was dedicated to St. [[Joseph of Cupertino]]. The altarpiece from 1777 is by [[Giuseppe Cades]]. The two columns of verde antico, green marble, are reputed to be the largest known in that type of stone.<ref name=Cor/>

* The third chapel of the left is dedicated to St. [[Francis of Assisi]], containing ''The Ecstasy of St Francis'' by [[Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari]].

[[Pope Clement XIV]] (1769–1774) is buried at the end of the left side aisle, near the door of the sacristy. His Neo-Classical tomb is by [[Antonio Canova]], made in 1783-1787.<ref name=turismo/> Besides the statue of that Pope, there are two uncommonly fine figures of ''"Temperance"'' and ''"Clemency"''.
